The Young Republican chat leak isn’t about “kids telling jokes.” It’s about a culture that’s been decades in the making—from the Southern Strategy to Trump’s open embrace of white nationalism. J.D. Vance’s defense of it shows how far the party has fallen.

Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃

TRUMP IN MAY: “Crime is down in Washington D.C. — people have noticed a big difference.”

Stop acting like any of this is being done in good faith. It isn’t.

Trump’s new sport isn’t golf. It’s silencing the press. Colbert, Kimmel, Gayle King, ABC, CNN — all in his crosshairs. Fear is the point. The Constitution is the casualty. But honestly he’s just trying to make his little tiny scared self feel better.

Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty.

It’s one thing when it’s a war… or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days.

But to rip these people from their lives for a show… is awful.

For decades, NASA has been a driver of scientific innovation that benefits our economy and national security. Now, we risk losing that if this Administration continues to gut NASA’s workforce and its budget.

Read my New York Times op-ed on why it’s not too late to change course.

Some generations were asked to storm beaches. Ours is being asked to stay engaged. That’s not too much to ask.

Illinois will always hold bullies like Secretary McMahon and Donald Trump accountable.

The Department of Education will now release school funding after fierce advocacy from governors and advocates alike.

I'll continue to show up and speak out.

Treasury Department files reviewed by Senator Ron Wyden’s staff members show 4,725 wire transfers, adding up to nearly $1.1 billion, associated with just one of Mr. Epstein’s bank accounts. Follow. The. Money.
"Epstein clearly had access to enormous financing to operate his sex trafficking network, and the details on how he got the cash to pay for it are sitting in a Treasury Department filing cabinet." https://trib.al/ZTn3IyO

We’ve been programmed to believe every issue has two sides. Left vs. right. Good vs. evil. But real life is messier—and centrism is the only path back to sanity. It’s not weak. It’s radical. And it might just save the country.
